Cutest person of all time. I love you Jonathan ❤

Alternative music videos of that era were very respectful to the audience’s intelligence.

In these days of pre-programmed digital. Talent effects, click tracks and auto-tune what a delight to see real spontaneity, humanity and talent oozing from every pore

What an incredibly beautiful patio and marvelous plant life!

Anyone in 2024? 😂

Al ser español me encanta como suena el aleman .como el austriaco Falco..esta cancion tiene unas extrañas buenas vibraciones..👏👏👏👏..hace muchos años no la oia desde 👉🇪🇦 Barcelona ..

its a great song.

Effjott Krüger .. die kühlste Nummer überhaupt bis heute. Neben Musiker hätte der auch Schauspieler werden können & sollen.

Got this on 7", cracking song

Why the added sound effects?

This is so Good

this is my favourite song ever wanna live my life like Andy

I also liked their warmup act, Ken Buddha and his Inflatable Knees. A smile, two bangs, and a religion!

Probably my favourite video on the web. Thanks VHS. Thanks Antoine.

Haha..lange nicht mehr gehört. Dat Wolfgang 😂

love this so much

I'm just a tender soul and be glad you know

I saw him live with his band back in 1981. In a tiny night club/ bar. Great show!

I like Stereolab.

still a banger

What about Francoise Hardy, Jonathan, tell us how much you love La Francoise! Elle est si belle!

JoJo rawks.

It is about time somebody recognized the genius of Jonathan Richman. I have been listening to him since the seventies. If you want to talk Avant garde, He is on par with the Velvet underground., Captain Beefheart and Frank Zappa. You could also include Roky Erickson. I'm A Little Airplane , let's give him his recognition before he passes away like so many others that were not given their due.

Das Publikum hat etwas Valium vorher bekommen. Damit sie nicht so ausrasten...

"I've got nothing against aggression it's just that it's not my line of work".

man this song is so good

Those guitars... its just heavenly to hear

LOVE

Embrace the Jonathan now!

Thanks Spotify. What a great band!!!

Is that weed in the back?

MTV 2 was great. It actualy played decent music and it didnt show any shitty reality shows

wie immer symkrom

This in a weird way is a prophetic reflection of the band, ever since this album, they just keep coming back to b-sides of various songs on this album ,barely making any new music.I mean this year is 21 years since this song came out off the album.Fuckin epic ,but since then good lord are the band stuck in the doldrums? Just ain't fair.how they couldn't break free for whatever reason

Jonathan Richman, le gars qui jouait du punk quand tout le monde jouait du folk, qui jouait du folk quand tout le monde jouait du punk

This is a great charismatic performance from Jojo! A singular talent and personality ❤️

quality

His Bostonian accent is so great! I love that it never disappears when he sings and almost sounds innocent and child- like. He's soo cute ❤️

Absolut genial. Ein echter Punk der das Outfit eines Buchhalters hat.

Eff Jott hatte die coolsten moves.. auch wenn er rein optisch auch bei Kraftwerk eine gute Figur gemacht hätte 😎

I would fall in love easily with jonathan richman

the world`s been grounded eversince shortly after this came out...

Does anyone know if he's autistic?

THE VIRGIN TONGUES backstory: In 2006, Duncan McKnight and Nima Ashe decided to move from Los Angeles, California to Berlin, Germany. There they met Robert Michael Giddens and began playing shows under the name Duncan McKnight band, building a decent fanbase and working with a psychedelic rock label in Berlin called Trip in Time records. The trio later decided on the name The Virgin Tongues and kept playing shows, eventually opening for The Kills in Berlin. Then, on May 1st, 2009 while on tour to Reykjavik Iceland (and to record their debut album with Singapore Sling frontman Henrik Bjornsson), McKnight fell from a window in downtown Reykjavik, suffering serious injuries and spent 9 months in hospital learning how to walk and talk. Despite valiant efforts, The Virgin Tongues did not play together again, and only a few recordings remain from those days. The past quickly becomes a distant dream, but the music remains alive forever.

what a mentsh

I had this playing on the bg without even looking at the screen and Abdul and Cleopatra had me smirking, then I came over to the screen to see how Jonathan was looking and I smiled real wide

Probably one of the only songwriters who has conversations with himself in the middle of his own songs. "But you know, Jonathan...". It's part of what makes JoJo, JoJo.

Very good song ! Very good memory ! ❤️

Can not believe this is almost 20 years old

Vincent gallo!
